I don't necessarily think Odesza needs music videos for their songs but when they come out with them they turn out to be the most wonderful pieces of art
+relatablair I know, the best mv I've seen last year is Zedd's "Beautiful Now" but I think ODESZA is making a mark this year. This piece is stunning af I swear.
Totally agreed
+relatablair have you seen woodkid music videos?
+relatablair indeed, so deep ,I cant get enough of this song esp.
+relatablair This music video is as absolutely amazing as Odesza themselves are unique. I live in WA State and I dated a girl who went to the same college as Odesza for four years. This video pretty much sums up the type of people and their personal missions that are realized through a very progressive Western Washington University. It is like I have always said, people do not end up at WWU by happenstance. You attend that college because you wish to create and enrich this world, not conquer and destroy people and their lives through shrewd business.
If Flume and ODESZA were to collaborate for an album, I'd die a happy man.
I think the same. explosive beautiful and serious. my ears have orgasms.
I'll be waiting for that to happen
A Flume, Odesza, and Zhu collaboration would be absolutely greatest thing to ever grace human ears.
+Adam SOMEBODY START UP KICKSTARTER!
+Greg van den Cyunt Flume + Odesza + Disclosure = I can now die happy.
I think the video starts by hinting at Cain & Abel, the first murder in Biblical history. Then we see Cleopatra, who died committing suicide by a snake. Then we have a pair of Gladiators which I think are supposed to represent Spartacus, because then we have Boudicca (woman with the wolf skin) and Hannibal (crossing the alps with his elephants) other famous enemies of Rome. Then we have Joan of Arc being burned at the stake. Then its Cortez discovering gold in Aztec Mexico. Not entirely sure which volcano that's supposed to be...and I think the railroad might be the Trans-Pacific Railway built across Canada. Obviously what follows is WWI and WWII. Then the 60s and the 'free love' movement. Moon landing. And then lastly the Arab Spring or the Occupy movement (or just civil unrest in the 21 Century, foreshadowing). Lastly we see a subversion of our expectations regarding the Cain & Abel story, and Cain leaves without harming anyone.
+UsefulChair The Volcano might be Pompeii
+Vincent Philip Except that should be well before Cortez and Joan in the timeline. Vesuvius erupted during the imperial period of Rome. Good guess though!
+UsefulChair Music video narrator for the blind...
But then you also have king author and European blood slaughter with the hawk and swords
Incredible thinking my friend.
HOW?! HOW HAS THIS NOT GONE VIRAL?! This is easily one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard and videos I've ever seen.
Because real music like this doesn't get the attention...
+Logan Stein ikr
yup
I'M THINKING THE SAME THING!!!
Jessica Walsh you're damn right
The contrast of creation and destruction of human nature. Fire and water, passion and anger, adaptivity and fluidity: they're all aspects of human nature from our most primitive state as cavemen to our modern state as artists, warriors, leaders, and explorers. Our basic needs and our basic fear of death have never changed. Human nature is timeless.
What? Why you gotta be hating, boy?
lol
ying yang?
It's really the nature of the whole planet, perhaps the whole universe, or even all physical things.
Carlo M u describe our dark sides, even still they both r beautiful. U can’t have one without the other.
ODESZA - You are an inspiration to everyone.
If only more people knew about them..
+GK Productions I don't know.. I kinda like that they're a bit lowkey
+GK Productions ha! They are definitely not low key, at least not on the west coast! Every event out here that has them in lineups sell out in (at most) 3 days. I remember the first time I saw them live 2 1/2 years ago... That was just before they first became big. The whole Coachella USC marching band brought a ton of attention.
+GK Productions They also headline a shit ton of festivals out on the west coast.
+Techy Damn! I'm glad at least they're successful and more people appreciate their music
"Black and white footage of gripping historically-influenced events, starting from humanity’s inception, bring deeper meaning to the lyrics “It’s only water, It’s only fire, It’s only love.” Conceptually, we see the power of carnal love to destroy: an idea not many dare to idle on. The video itself displays various examples of the things we, as multifaceted emotional beings, do for love (whether it be for a person, for material possessions, or for power). Shedding new light to the lines, “What is lust if it’s not being by yourself?” and “It’s only slaughter, We’re only liars, It’s only blood,” we are told time and again that love is often the purveyor of death and destruction."
"By showing people driven by a lust for something almost unattainable (coupled with great cinematography), Odesza’s video challenges our sentiment toward what we may believe when we think about love."
great annalysis
I like ur perspective n well said
Well written friend
I don't know why, but this made me really emotional for some reason
Sophia E Koskinen Your ancestors speak to you. Learn from them.
Darksky1001able what’s ancestor?
It's an emotional song. The lyrics say it's someone who fucked up in relationship, but combined with the video it explains how love is a battlefield full of discovery.
Try it on acid
This needs more views!!!
+montgomery burns what.?
+montgomery burns wat?
Wanderlust Please continue doing what you do. I like your stuff.
I've done my part!
You got your wish. It’s at 1.7mil
3:12 , The best constructed tune I've ever heard in a song. It's literally perfection.
I really hope you keep making music like this.
Agree ☺️
I love how everything sounds when it hits 3:13 I seriously get chills everytime
Saaaameee
Also 3:44
+Julia Jolly I really love the build up to that part.
same
+Matthew Tkach transition to
this song is about the struggle of humanity. it shows how history repeats itself, all the things that motivate and shape us, love, death, discovery, war, as the human race we've been through already. that's why the song tries to belittle these things by saying 'its only love' or ' you're only crying you're only dying you're only dead.' its funny because these things are literally the driving force of humanity yet the song belittles in a mocking way. its beautiful to know that our struggle only means as much as the meaning to it.
That’s an interesting interpretation. I like to look at it as the fact that all of human history is responsible by the caveman not bludgeoning the other caveman and his partner to death while they slept. Instead of killing them, he was smart enough to “carry the fire with him”, thus extending human civilization to the present day.
Bruh. There isn't any meaning to anything
I love the concept behind this music video. To me, the lyrics portray fire, water, and love as forces of nature. Purely, they are only fire, only water, and only love. When wielded by humans with motives, they become constructive or destructive. Tools for creating empires and relationships. Tools for destroying and conquering. It's only slaughter. We're only liars. It's only blood. The destruction is justified time and time again. It's not a big deal. It happens all the time. It's part of life. It's only fire. It's only water. It's only love.
This is one of the most beautiful and inspiring videos ive seen in a long time
Tasnia Journey 4th
This video deserves a BILLION views. True art right here. I love this.
Many people today have a wrong sense of confusing quality with quantity and quantity is not synonymous with quality.
One of the best music videos of all time.
This song transcends good and evil throughout the whole length of the human race and is a beautiful work of art that can never be beaten in value
I hated edm music when it all first started coming around hard years ago. Until I heard these people and big gigantic..... odesza can really melt your brain and I love it.... theres no going back is there?
this is such a sick music video
really why don't you give it some medicine
+Luis Angle this is the worst thing i've read on the internet in a long time
Hey I was being funny
Luis Angle yea sorry for putting you down i shouldn't have done that it actually was pretty good in a weird way
If you thought this music vidro was then check out the music video for Valentino Khan - Deep Down Low.
Historical moments pictured, for the nerds out there:
"Discovery" of Fire ~ 1 million years ago
Queen Cleopatra of Egypt - 30 BC - Cleopatra has an asp brought to her, to commit suicide in Egypt, when Marc Antony's attempt to control Rome fails, and Romans attack Alexandria.
Roman Gladiators - 300BC - 380AD - Although the round shield would make him a Thraex, the armor of the Thraex is very similar to a Murmillo, which is the "type" of gladiator that Spartacus was. Possibly Spartacus, then?
Gaulish woman watches Hannibal crossing the Alps - 218BC
Not sure of the location / age / significance of the castle
Catholic / Anglican witch hunts. Possibly Joan of Arc (1431)
Spanish discovery of gold in the Americas - 1492/93
Random volcanic eruption
American West 19th/20th century
American soldier, First World War - 1917-1918 (American involvement)
German SS w/ 'Totenkopf' - 1933-1945
Civil Rights / Sexual Revolution - 1955-1970
First space walk - 1965
Riot - 21st century, based on automobile and police garb
Wow, great catch on all these, thank you!
Wow great man...👌
The volcano may refer to one of those big eruptions.
Laki 1783 VEI 6
Tambora 1815 VEI 7
Krakatau 1883 VEI 6
Castle could represent Rouen where Joan of Arc was imprisoned or the location of where the English landed in France during the Hundred Years War
Thomas already listed a few possible candidates for the volcano but it could also be Mount Pelee eruption 1902
French castle and battleground could allude to the battle of Agincourt (during 100 years war)
For a strong edm and techno listener this song is like heaven to my ears. Odessa brings something no other artist bring... beauty and meaning. I have now listened to this song over 50+ times and I happily say this is my favorite song I have ever and probably will ever listen too.
This song deserves more recognition! People love this song when I play it!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Really replayed it this year. Before, I just liked it but now I understand and the message resonates deeply. I need more music like this
This is one of the coolest and most powerful music videos I've ever seen
wow
+Red Cristo. you red members listen to this thats sick!
+George 12543 cristo has edits featuring Odesza tracks lol
+Red Cristo. i preshiate chu
Cristo
+eRyon Jowyy Jowy
This video changed my perception of this song
Strider1048 same
Yep
Yup
does this song want to make anyone else cry?
brizzy kay can't help it
The song has so much meaning! Love this kind of music!
+RBRShortFilms13 Hey dear! This kind of music is lifeee
:)
to everyone who knew Odesza before everyone thought they found them first when viners used their music, i love yall
+Lamar Davis there are vines unsing odesza's music?
Yeah I've only known them for three years
Dequan Liquefaction nice
I need a link to these vines
they were vape vines, and i think amanada cerny used sunshine models in one of her vines
ODESZA is so underrated. They are some of the musical geniuses of our generation, as good as Flume. People need to hear this
Beautiful not everyone will see it the way us fans see it
True
Luis Corona exactly
1:21- 1:35 that part gives me chills
same...
3:45 also
I am learning that even thru the darkest of nights there is only love that surrounds me. I wish the best for all souls wishing for love.
*Love it!*
This video is so aesthetically pleasing, freaking LOVE IT😍
The lyrics is so beautiful. How can this has only a million views?
Many people today have a wrong sense of confusing quality with quantity and quantity is not synonymous with quality.
literally so fucking good i'm so glad they made a video for this song, it's probably my favorite.. and this video is just gorgeous ugh
Zyras s voice is incredible.
This is one of a few songs that shows the future and past the we humans have suffered from one to another. It is amazing and saddening to to see the truthful nature of humanity. We are in the midst of repeating history's most regrettable incidences to the fullest while being the most ignorant. Think and do one's interests thoroughly.
This Video is a masterpiece of art!! the Story of the track is told so beautiful.
I would love to see a behind the scenes of this
Same
Why does ODEZA know how to make life-meaning pieces of art?
This song always brings me back into reality, i always seem to get caught up in life and something breaks and i always find myself back at this song "there only thoughts that im having stored safe inside my head" that one line just grounds me, nothing is actually real or matters lifes only here to experience, win, fail neither matters cos when ur gone, the universe dissapears, the universe only exists because you have evolved senses to experience it, without it, nothing.
ODESZA - Synonyme de sonorité faite de voyages et de liberté ! :)
This will forever be my favorite song. Beautiful. I can feel this in my soul when i hear it. Its a true work of art. I saw Odesza in 2018 live and i didnt say but 3 words. I was crying tears of joy the entire time though!!!
Damn, this had me really emotional. My eyes are all wet.
One of Odesza's greatest. The video alone is heartbreaking - but I feel empowered
ODESZA are Gods of music, simply put!
This has always been my favorite song of theirs, and this video has changed my whole interpretation of it. AMAZING
I read "It's Only" is about the cardinal rule of love, that love can destroy. And the anger and frustration of love lost.
Knowing that This song became my song for my mother's passing and got me through a lot of dark emotions. Because i realized..
Love can be like throwing yourself off of a cliff. It isn't the fall that kills you... But, the sudden stop.
I miss you always, Momma..
💔
Sorry for your loss, Mitch!!!! Big hugs!!!!!!
Favorite part is the one between the two warriors near the beginning. The way he hugs the boy after killing him is very telling.
really cool and fits the song so well!
I'm here only to say this is the BEST music video of Odesza!! The meaning of the song is so powerful and It's Only means a lot to me. They can make more video clips for their new songs but this will always be my favorite.
😻 love you!
Odesza's music transports you to another world, amazing!
Gotta be honest.. this song is really helping me get through my incredibly painful recent breakup.
Probably my favorite song ever
Oh I got chills all over my body. This song. The video. Amazing. Love it.
still loving this in 2021
the feeling is the same from the first time i heard this song/saw this video till now, nothings changed, still amazingly poignant and impactful
YES MY FAV ODESZA SONG OF ALL TIME
Same! Say my name remix is 2nd
divinity remix is my fav
I can't express my love for this song so I will only say WOW!
Wonderfully filmed. Puts another meaning to the song that I can entirely enjoy.
all the feels..... I LOVE YOU ODESZA. SO. MUCH.
I'm dead serious guys, this music is so good that makes you high even if you don't do drugs.
This song is a masterpiece! Will never get old...
Of all the complicated ties we have, blood, water, tears, death, we're tied together. We suffer everything as one. As we conquer eachother
Still here. Still love this song
Pure Magic from ODESZA!!! Love Zyra
Brb crying, this is amazing 👏👏👏
this is amazing, we're all united together in love in this world
I love the ambition of this. A meditation of humanity. How we let greed and fear overwhelm our basic decency. Almost too optimistic, because in almost every scenario, the humanity takes over in the end and people realize what they're doing...but I'm pretty sure this is not actually the case. Anyway, great track, fantastic video, bravo!
perfect start to my day: ODESZA
This video is artistically beautiful. And they put together one awesome video. But when I hear the song, it reminds me of folklore. Something like Cleopatra which they did include in this. Because the mind goes to ancient places. However for what its worth ODESZA your video is one of the best videos for a song ever!
To be honest, one of the best music video I have ever seen in my Life
My favorite song in the album, I can listen to this all day every day. Now we also have a very nice video to go with it, can only make me happier :D
When the beat dropped... I cried. The beat and the video together are to much! ♡♡♡
Another one
+Mac you loyal
You smart
+Andy SR yous a genius
I apreciate that
I feel like I’m rolling watching this so beautiful 😍
Who is the videographer? Such a remarkably talented work!
Years have passed yet im still coming back here bcos dis song meant so much for me.
it seems like this video depicts several historical scenes but what I'm having a hard time figuring out is what they have in common, mostly lows with some highs.
I'm thinking that is the cruelty of this moments. They all had, if I'm not wrong, many losses. Discrimination, genocide etc...
+AthleticKiwi I think it means that fire and water have been the catalyst for destruction our entire human history, but it is the creative love energy that is by far the most powerful thing in the Universe.
+Beancrew49 possibly, but the last scene returning to the first shows that the dude didn't actually bash their heads in while they slept and took some of their fire - not sure what it means in the grand scheme of the video but potentially mixed perceptions of things?
+the-1337-one I think it shows that even in our most primitive state (caveman) we have the power to choose creation over destruction. It left me with the sense that there is hope for humanity.
+Beancrew49 I like your interpretation :)
this song is just magic
REMINDS ME SOO MUCH OF OLD SPARK MASTER TAPE 🖤
Nostalgia is pretty tight
and then you see the video and gladly remember the day you watch them live - and it was the best day. like ever!
The look in the gladiators eyes as he is strangling his opponent to death, gives me chills everytime. It is the same old "nothing personal" attitude that large banks and pretty much all corporations have in todays society and it is such a copout.
This is not a song and not a video, it is an art
OHMYGOD I ALMOST SHAT MYSELF I FREAKED OUT WHEN THIS VIDEO CAME UP
beautiful
the part with the conquistador is incredible ... the almost surreal beauty of the scene ; two worlds meeting , a world of guns and slaughter and a world of innocence and mystery . the scene in itself isn't violent but we already know how their contact ended .... humans can be so sad
This might be the best music video I've ever watched and I seriously mean that.
Almost looks like a Woodkid video. Nice work
+DarKnightofCydonia agreed ;)
+DarKnightofCydonia hay
+DarKnightofCydonia That was my first thought too. I thought maybe he directed it, but it's some guy named Dan Brown.
what the hell is this man talking. about get out of here
This song is crazy good, but ...this video! One of the best productions I've seen in a long time. Perfectly ties with the song, like its own adaptable story.
Its the Cain&Abel story that really gets me here. Im able to interpret the rest of the video , as we all can (though, interpretations will inevitably vary). And its easier to do since each scene signifies a part of history , and follows the general story of it (or at least shows nothing to contradict it) apart from the Cain&Abel story. Why is it that this is the story that is referenced more than once? And why is it that the murder is not actually comitted and the couple are left unharmed?
A single act of restraint or mercy can have far reaching effects. Violence is learned.
I don't believe it's cain and abel necessarily, but instead simply references the discovery of fire. The man sees that another man has fire and this beautiful woman and he lusts for what that man has. The video then turns to images of the destruction people have committed for lust, be that for power or personal desires or what have you. That the song is named "It's Only," reinforces the idea that human kind has rationalized these acts of violence. That these ideas are "safe within my head" leads us to the ending, when the man takes the fire but not the woman, showing compassion and a rejection of lust. Just my thoughts...
This means so much on so many different levels.
The fastest I've clicked on a notification :3 Love this so much
This came out on my birthday and nothing compares to this !!!!
Below Her Mouth
I just love the approach in this music video about gladiators ,rome v carthidge, england v france, salem witch trials, cortez and his conquistadors against the s native americans, life in the American frontiers, WW1, WW2, etc. This chronological approach is just something ,to me, unique coupled with the alluring music is wow
odesza and Alina Baraz needs to make a song together
his show at Lollapalooza Argentina was the best of my life! please come back
thanks for your music. something magical is what you convey me
COME BACK TO ARGENTINA
Michelle sent me here but damn I'm happy to have found your channel 🙌
who's Michelle?
Michelle Phan
have you seen her?
Below Her Mouth soundtrack fave brought me here multiple times...That and my best is named Odesza and died last year! Good vibes.
